Jenny from PHART returned to the mine and began her re-inspection.

I was confidently nervous.

Or was I nervously confident?

Or was I just nervous?

She had the power to close down my mine forever.

Or declare it perfectly wonderful and the best mine in the world.

She declared it perfectly wonderful and the best mine in the world, although she did mention that it wasn’t quite as deep as one other mine she’d recently inspected.

Zargoid 5 is going down.

Ha!

I knew that anonymous tip-off would get him investigated.

Jenny declared my mine re-opened.

I jumped for joy and wanted to get back to work immediately… to explore the mine, to invent, to dig. And for that, I turned to my trusty DeskAfloat.

What is DeskAfloat?

It’s a half desk / half boat.

It functions perfectly as either… but is best when it’s both.

There’s only one minor drawback… a little seawater sometimes gets in and corrodes your pens. But other than that, it’s just like my mine: perfect.

I used it to sail down the liquid magma trail, steering into the deepest depths of the mine… all the while coming up with inventions to sell to you.

But you don’t need to wait for those.

You should be buying a DeskAfloat… today!

Note to self: Maybe DeskAfloat should come with an inflatable gerbil.

That way Dennis would be properly represented.
